i totally understand the lack of time leading to less sonic explorations - happens to me basically every week :sweat_smile: - but awesome that you stuck with it, were able to use some past stems to build from there (and more quickly than from scratch). i've found going to samples ready to go makes it easier and quicker to put something together when i lack time.

cool experiment with the keyboard drumming and strumming, and i do like the more human feel they give the track. i've heard not always sticking to the grid gives a track more 'life' and 'organic' feelings. the very arhythmic aspects of this track, coupled with some on-the-beat hihats i think, do give this a chaotic kind of vibe for me - maybe a cool background track for like a mad scientist scene in a video game, with a lab that has an eerieness to it that the arrhythmic aspects can accentuate.

keep it up!
